Microblade & Shade
Blade & Shade Treatment
The Natural Eyebrow Look
Microblading is a technique of cosmetic tattooing performed specifically on the eyebrows. Like earlier methods of cosmetic tattooing, it is done by manually depositing pigment into the second layer ofthe skin (dermis). But what makes it truly unique is the hand tool used. The unique formation of microblading needles allows the artist to create the look of real eyebrow hairs by tattooing very fine hair-like strokes in the skin. Shading the brow following microblading will add density and more of a defined look.
